Description
This stunning trio of Dendrobates tinctorius “Azureus”, also known as Blue Poison Dart Frogs, are among the most famous and admired dart frog species in the hobby. Their dazzling sapphire-blue skin covered in irregular black spotting makes them a true centrepiece in any vivarium.
These frogs are bold, active, and excellent feeders, making them a fantastic choice for both experienced keepers and those newer to dart frogs. They thrive in groups and are most active during the day, so you’ll often see them exploring, calling, or hunting for food.
They come housed in a 45 × 45 × 60 cm Exo Terra vivarium, fully planted and bioactive. The enclosure is established with live plants, leaf litter, climbing structures, and a clean-up crew, offering the frogs a naturalistic and thriving environment.
Private delivery can be arranged, or collection is welcome from Tiverton.

Stocking note: this listing is for the animals and enclosure described here; it is not intended to establish a universal minimum enclosure size or group size for Dendrobates tinctorius. Adult compatibility and usable enclosure structure should be monitored continuously.
Enclosure Suitability & Evidence Review
Last reviewed: 5 September 2026
There is no single scientifically established enclosure dimension that is appropriate for every dart frog, tree frog or other tropical species. Enclosure suitability depends on adult body size, activity, climbing or terrestrial use, territorial and social behaviour, group size, ventilation, usable planted space, refuge availability and the keeper’s ability to maintain stable environmental conditions.
Dimensions quoted on this page describe the enclosure being sold; they should not be read as a universal minimum stocking rule. Frogfather recommends choosing the inhabitants first and confirming that the finished enclosure provides appropriate usable space, environmental gradients and social-management options for those animals.
